Religion is brainwashing, hedonism is purification

Black death turns into white death.

If because of the plague, it made the citizen collapsed in the street, then that city already in their last leg. Why? Simple, if your member of family get sick, they will be in the bed, the healthy people is the one who leave the house and nurse the sick. If they too already collapsed, then its safe to say that the people in their house is already dying.

Who says it can't be both? =/ Remove brainwashing with the apple juice then apply new brainwashing through song.

Technically speaking, he is. X3 But he doesn't even need magic to do it. He's establishing a fandom market for one of his own subordinates. And since Avalon is built on trade, imagine what kind of money will start rolling in because of the fan bases, especially if they start expanding with new talents, product lines, and merchandising!

The Hippogriff flights was something of a blunder though. Great for trade, not so great with a running Pandemic. Quarantines will affect their businesses badly, and they'll have to increase spending on medical services. Like in every other manga with this kind of plot, coming up with a cure will be their best option. Fortunately Procell as a reincarnator and Demon Lord has access to resources most would not.

It also kinda helps that a hospital was introduced a few chapters back.

Things worked much better with fighting and the various demon lord powers, but when it comes to politics, society, religion, and such, the author's storytelling is falling short.

The Japanese sure like that reaction guys meme.

Ditch the evil religion and start worshipping a Great Old One? Seems reasonable. And more of R'lyeh can't be bad.

Speaking of Japanese, I'm pretty sure that religion thing is 100% alluding to "ditch faith in the emperor and military and start worshipping mammon/the american way" that happened post WW2.

Nah, there's no way leaving an old religion to worship an idol and a gambling can be a parallel leaving old stuffy stuff and turning to greed in any way. That's just inconceivable.
